For the first time, the provinces will contribute up to 30% of players’ national contracts.
THE IRFU HAS officially confirmed a change to its central contracting system ahead of next season, with the provinces contributing up to 30% of the value of national contracts.
However, the IRFU has confirmed a change following a review of the union’s funding model which was launched last year, with the provinces now contributing up to 30% of the national contract for the first time. The union said there will be “new incentives based on future growth of income from EPCR and URC competitions,” as well as a new “matched funding programme” aimed at helping the provinces to increase fundraising efforts and investment in the domestic game.
“At the heart of our existing model is the central control of player contracting and management, which is admired by many. A key change to the funding model will see provinces contribute up to 30% of the cost of a national contract for their players, with this level to be reviewed annually.
